re: UAB is joining the union

Is this "dislike" an Alabama thing only? SEC thing?

I always heard that the Bear's son screwed them over and that they were the victims on the disbanded football thing.

Other than that. Most people know they used to be really good at basketball.... and they have a highly respected medical school.

So you Bama people need to fill some of us in about UAB hate.

Alabama is the University of Alabama, UAB is the University of Alabama at Birmingham. And you have UAH as well.

But then it's all controlled by the University of Alabama system, even though each is autonomous.

I don't know much beyond that. Some kind of bickering and fighting or something. Not wanting to have 3 different programs among them, or using resources to it. Something like that.

Auburn fans are the ones who pump UAB just because they hate Alabama.
